A [[Bracada|Bracadian]] researcher, based in the town of [[Tarach's Cove]], Khazandar was considered a renegade by many wizards because of his mercenary attitude, and he was demoted from Archmage to [[Alchemist]]. Although he prided himself to have unchallenged skills as an alchemist and weaponsmith, this demotion left him resentful and, as revenge, he became even more mercenary, working for anyone who had the gold to commission his work. He is known to have created, for example, an adamantine hammer for the High Priest of the [[Temple of Baa]], a cult created by [[Xenofex]] on [[Enroth (continent)|Enroth]] to sow dissension and undermine [[Roland|King Roland Ironfist]].
A [[Bracada|Bracadian]] researcher and [[alchemist]], Khazandar was considered a renegade by many wizards, despite a lack of an official statement from [[Gavin Magnus]] (as seen in the [[World on Fire]] {{wh}}). However, due to the importance and brilliance of his research, he was left alone by the Council of Bracada. He later became a smith and was the one to forge the [[Armageddon's Blade (artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]] after [[Xeron]] delivered to him the necessary components ([[Shield of the Damned]], [[Sword of Hellfire]] and the [[Breastplate of Brimstone]]) in the [[Armageddon's Blade (campaign)|Armageddon's Blade]] campaign. Following Xeron's loss of the Armageddon's Blade (and Gelu obtaining the latter), presumably as an act of revenge, he was crucified and humiliated, his body left to rot on a cross.
 
Despite his semi-ostracism and his unsavory customers, he kept in touch with other mages who chafed under [[Gavin Magnus]]'s restrictions on acceptable fields of magical research, such as [[Frederick]], who considered him to be "the freest mind in Bracada".
 
Foreseeing his role in creating the the [[Armageddon's Blade (artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]], the [[Elemental Lords]] sent heroes to secure him and keep him hidden. [[Xeron]], however,  defeated these heroes, found the Grand Forgesmith, and delivered to him the necessary components ([[Shield of the Damned]], [[Sword of Hellfire]] and the [[Breastplate of Brimstone]]) to create the artifact in the [[Armageddon's Blade (campaign)|Armageddon's Blade]] campaign. In lieu of payment for his service, Xeron ordered Khazandar to be sent to [[Jagos]] for execution. After [[Gelu]] defeated [[Xeron]] and obtained the Blade, Khazandar was found crucified and humiliated, his body left to rot on a cross. His spirit lingered on and came to [[King Roland]] to tell his tale and warn him of the danger of letting oneself be blinded by the desire for revenge.
